I will be doing the same soon.Cruising the interwebs in search of parts and pieces.
I will be doing the same soon.
I remember the previous two that I owned as being very accurate, but ammo picky. I have more knowledge now than before and more ammo to choose from. So I'm thinking I will have any ammo issues that might arise covered. Also it appears that GSG has made an improvement in the slide. The area on the slide where the slide release lever contacts, there is now two steel pin inserts. I don't remember that being there before and remember the slide getting chewed up in that area.I don't think I've ever shot a full size 1911 in .22lr. Looks like it could be a lot of fun. A CMMG .22lr kit in an AR is a whole lot of fun too, but a .22lr 1911 might be the ultimate plinking gun.
Please dont tell me that you and BA lead these meetings? We are all doomed!Just sayingHello everyone........My name is "churchmouse" and I am an addict...............
the weekly meetings of 1911's anonomouse are on Tuesday nights in the Church basement.
Great time at the range today, both times. Point Blank Greenwood has the Sig P226 Legion SAO in the rental case and I rented it today. Holy crap. I'm not normally a fan of the P226 but that thing is SICK! Gonna start saving my pennies up for one
Met redwingshooter and let him shoot my cajun babies and got to shoot his completely modified G34. Nice day!
Want to send a big "thank you" out to WTB for letting me shoot his two CZ's today. I'm not a huge fan of anything below a full size but his two compacts were pretty slick. Definitely like the P-09 better than the 40P (forgive me if I got the designations wrong), but then again I'm not a huge fan of the 40 S&W anyway. I can tell the difference between a stock and tuned CZ now, that's for sure. We also met up with Indyglockguy (again sorry if I got the screen name wrong), who pretty much showed me exactly what my G34 is capable of. I was in the presence of much better shooters than myself today and I'm totally ok with that. As Dirty Harry said, "A man's got to know his limitations", and I'm well aware that my level of pistol shooting is below a lot of other people's (I have a recoil anticipation flinch that I'm trying to work out with snap caps). That being said, I'd say I shot the P-09 and the G34 "about" the same with maybe a slight edge to the P-09. Thanks again WTB for letting me shoot your babies!
As for the Sig I put all of 5 rounds through it because it was WTB's rental and I didn't want to shoot up all of the ammo he bought for it. I was also impressed with it. The trigger was, well, different to say the least. It was a flat trigger which I was not used to but it was a very clean break and pretty light. The thinner grips on the 226 made it a lot more comfortable to shoot than your standard P-226. It was definitely a very slick gun and you will pay for it to say the least.
Really looking forward to next weekend when I get to shoot with BA and the wizard and see their CZ's!
So, I'll throw this out to the thread to get everyone's opinion. If I were to make the switch to a CZ for USPSA production I'm guessing I would want the SP 01 tactical? I want the steel frame and the decocker (saw a gentleman get DQ'ed from a ND at my last competition when he was lowering the hammer on his 75B before the start of a classifier). Don't think I can spring over $1500 for the accu shadow or accu target, so let's just leave those out of the conversation. Thanks for all the input everyone!
Picked this guy up today. Should make for some cheap training at the range. It fits my holster that I already have for the Springer. This is actually my 3rd GSG 1911-22 that I have owned. I put the old grips from the Springer onto this, much better gooder.
